As it goes

 

The stress of putting the maxsold together + the stress of work created an interesting phenomenon.

I have a double authentication device that I need for work. Yesterday I left the bag with it in it at home and had to leave all my SOLUS work until today. In 3 years of having the device I have never forgotten it before. THEN I got home today and found that I had brought the bag home but the device was not in it, it must still be at work. Wednesdays I work from home so I'll need to bike in early tomorrow to go and pick it up.

Electrician

 The electrician is coming tomorrow morning to try to find the source of the missing ground. Hopefully, this is a successful venture.

Mike is also planning to stop by tomorrow morning.

I am off on the morning as we have a webinar in the evening.

Today Sarah and I went to see Darlene in the hospital after Church. She has a great view of the lake despite the circumstances.

Then I did some work in the basement organizing books. Also got in the laundry from the line and mowed the lawn. Cleaned the upstairs bathroom. Will aim to clean the downstairs bathroom tomorrow.

slow progress

 I have been working through the house in preparation for the maxsold. I completed the kitchen and linen closet this week and today finished the upstairs bedroom. I still have to go through books, the garage and dining room. Al is coming to help me take pictures this week.

The neighbours had a pretty large party tonight but has wrapped up now. 

A few storms blew through. The grass needs a mow as it is looking raggedy but it will be too wet for a while!

Surprise visitor

 Mike drove from N.B yesterday unplanned. Arrived at our place around dinnertime. Luckily I had put a whole turkey breast in the slow cooker and so there was more than enough dinner for everyone. I made rice and wedges to go along with it.

I had so much cardboard from cleaning out the basement that I had my 2 bins full + 4 cardboard boxes full. Apparently they don't take cardboard boxes with things in it, they only take the bins. As they did my side of the street first my neighbour suggested refilling the bins and putting them with their recycling so that I could get 4 bins worth out!

basement progress

 Today was a long day of interviews with another day tomorrow to go. James is happily set up in his new room. Today I cleaned where his bed used to be and started putting maxsold items in that cove.

The plumber came today to fix the basement sink. He made quick work of fixing it.
